High-Carbohydrate and High-Glycaemic Diets

 Indians have been eating a diet full of carbs since the 1960s, the biggest driving factor of obesity in the country.

The Myth of Vegetarian Diet

A vegetarian diet is not necessarily a healthier diet. Eating fried food regularly, reusing oil and not including raw foods, salads and fruits in your diet ruin all the benefits.

Sugar

Indians generally have a sweet tooth, which is again extremely unhealthy.

Poor Fat

Owing to commercially available snacks, biscuits, cookies, fried foods and refined oils, we Indians consume trans fats, the most harmful kind.

Snacking

Indians love snacks, like samosas, namkeens and bhujias, made out of highly refined and processed foods like refined flour (maida). 

Late Dinners

 The consumption of unhealthy food and extra calories just before bedtime, especially in cities, ends up creating dietary disasters.
